Additional Car Insurance in Oklahoma

We’re not here to scare you, but have you thought about all the bad stuff that can happen to your car? If not, if might be time to consider adding more coverage so you don’t get stuck paying for damages if you’re not properly insured. Consider these additional coverage options:

Collision– Hit something with your car? That’s what collision coverage is there to pay for.

Comprehensive– If your car gets tossed around in a tornado or winds up flooded, this kind of insurance will help pay for it.

Medical payments– If you don’t want to use your health insurance, this coverage will pay for medical expenses and even funeral costs after an accident.

Uninsured motorists– If a driver hits you but isn’t insured, you’ll be stuck paying for the damages—unless you have this coverage, that is.

Proof of Insurance in Oklahoma

Saying you have insurance isn’t enough if you get pulled over. You’ll get an insurance card when you start or renew a policy that will include your:

Name, address, and NAIC number of insurance carrier

Year, make, model, and VIN of car

Dates of policy

Keep it in your glove compartment and never take it out unless a cop asks to see it. That way, you’ll always have it and can avoid trouble.

They’ll Know If You’re Not Insured

If your insurance ends and you don’t renew it, the electronic insurance verification system that the Oklahoma DMV uses will be notified immediately. A lapse in coverage could result in the following violations and penalties:

Up to $250 in fines

30 days in jail

Suspension of driver’s license and vehicle registration

Insurance For High-Risk Drivers

If you’ve been caught speeding to work too many times or have been involved in too many fender benders, you may be denied auto insurance coverage through the open market. This is because companies see you as too high-risk of a driver. Because auto insurance is required in the state, the Oklahoma’s Automobile Insurance Plan is there to help. All insurance companies participate in it and take on customers based on their market share. For example, if State Farm has 5% of the market share in Oklahoma, it will be required to cover 5% of the high risk drivers in the state. Because the OAIP is often times more expensive, we recommend calling a licensed agent to see what your options are.
